Mischief is my middle name
Brewing it, my avocation
I find just where it works best
At work or on vacation

You may not know it was I
That hid your pen from you
Or pulled that thread from your coat
Or put the knot there in your shoe

I hide around the corner
Waiting for your guard to go down
And when you least expect it
I can really go to town!

The keys upon your keyboard
Will be taped with double duct
Your chair tied to the desk you see
A design that I’ll construct

Your clock set two hours ahead
Your pens will be out of ink
Your phone will hold a cotton ball
Gone deaf, is what you’ll think!

But you will never suspect me
I’m innocent in my gaze
So beware of one called Ms. deVine
And the mischief games she plays

Oh, PoetDivine,
play tricks if you must.
But, please, I beg you think !
Whatever you do,
I plead you think again.
Do your little mischief ...
but don't take the ink from my pen!

What offerings do you give
to the Mischief Goddess tonight?
Those of you who quiver
and shake in poetic fright?

Your pen is dry,it was not I
perhaps my brother Will?
He is known for taking
the goose out of the quill!

(thank you all!)
